CHAUTAUQUA LAKE 




The fame of Chautauqua Lake and the Chautauqua Assembly is world- 
wide. Each year this beautiful lake is visited by thousands of intelligent 
people, not only by those who wish to avail themselves of the advantages of the 
Chautauqua Assembly in connection with their summer recuperation, but also 
by those in search of rest and recreation only — for the shores of the lake 
throughout its entire length of twenty miles are dotted with hotels, camps and 
summer cottages. It is fed entirely by springs, and its high altitude — 1,450 
feet above the sea — insures health and comfort. Chautauqua Lake, considered 
from any point of view, is one of the most charming resorts on the American 
continent. It is the radiantl\' beautiful gem of a section famed far and wide 
for its beauty and the salubrity of its cliinate. There is a subtle charm, an 
alluring fascination, in the wooded hills and shores, the bright, sparkling 
waters, and the almost numberless summer places, which is irresistible. 

REACHED BY THE ERIE RAILROAD 

The Erie Railroad, the Picturesque Trunk Line of America, is the most 
direct route to Chautauqua Lake, and is the only line without change from 
New York, Boston, Buffalo, Cleveland, Cincinnati and Chicago. Its solid vesti- 
buled trains, consisting of luxurious day coaches, sleeping cars and dining and 
cafe cars, are everywhere protected by block safety signals. The dining car 
service, which is maintained on a high standard by the Railroad Company itself, 
is worth especial mention. Breakfast, dinner and supper in regular dining cars 
are served a la carte, and the passenger pays only for what is ordered. Dinner, 
with an elaborate menu, is served at the uniform price of one dollar. In the 
cafe cars meals are served a la carte at all hours. 

All the Erie's through trains during the summer stop at Lakewood — the 
Newport of the lake — noted 
for its fine hotel, the Kent 
House. 

At Lakewood direct 
connection is made with the 
Chautauqua Traction Com- 
pany's new line to the Chaii- 
tauqua Assembly Grounds 
and Bemus Point, and also 
with swift and commodious 
steamers to all landings on 
the lake, including the 
Chautauqua Assembly 
Grounds. Baggage may be 
checked through to the 
grounds. 

Stop-over at Lakeivood ( Chautauqua. Lake ) is atloived—on notice to Conductor 
—from June 1st to September 30th, on all through tickets l^ia the Erie.
